What about Lambert, not on the list but has done brilliantly at Norwich and would probably have more money to spend with us (I hope)?
Rijkard or Guardiola for me. I'll back whoever comes in but only the longer shots or jokey ones at the bottom are better than NW. New owner gives manager 5 months in charge - is this progress?
Like them or not, Norwich are 9th in the league with a settled squad. Lambert will be at a far bigger club than them or us in the not too distant future.
I'm not sure he will be? Dalglish aside, when was the last time a top 6 or 7 club employed someone from this country (or Scotland)? Probably Spurs with Redknapp but they were 4th from bottom at the time if I remember rightly? As much as I'd love to see home grown managers given a chance, I can't see Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal or Man City going for Lambert, much more likely to go abroad once again!! So, that probably leaves the likes of Spurs (if Redknapp wants or gets the England job), Villa, Newcastle and Everton who I'd consider bigger clubs than us that might go for him if they change manager. And would he want to manage no money Everton or work for Mike Ashley?
Fernandes wouldn't bring in a self confessed fascist. Di Canio would probably have a bust of il Duce on his desk.
Moyes would be a very good shout. However, Eddie Howe (Burnley), or lee Clark (Uddersfield) would be good and even I would consider accepting this paticular role
